RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – Many in this ultra-conservative kingdom, where husbands and wives rarely even kiss in public, have been scandalized by a Saudi man who spoke frankly about sex on a satellite TV program, showing off erotic toys and fantasizing about joining the mile-high club.

More than 200 people have filed legal complaints against Mazen Abdul-Jawad, dubbed a "sex braggart" by the media, and many Saudis say he should be severely punished.
"His punishment should be as harsh as his sin," said lawyer Mohsen al-Awajy. "He has outraged everybody."

Abdul-Jawad was detained last Friday for questioning. But his lawyer, Sulaiman al-Jumeii, said the interview, which was aired on the Lebanese-based LBC satellite TV station, was manipulated. He also said his client was not aware in many instances that he was being recorded.
LBC chief, Pierre Daher, refused to comment on the allegations when contacted by The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Abdul-Jawad's July 15 appearance on LBC's "Bold Red Line" program shocked Saudis who have rarely heard a fellow citizen publicly confess such sexual exploits.

LBC satellite TV channel, which is controlled by Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, is the one who should be jailed and lynched.
